Dublin limo driver Megan Malone finds her relationship on the rocks when a double murder at the whiskey festival draws her in – despite promising her girlfriend she’d quit sleuthing for good…


Synopsis:

The competition for best whiskey in Ireland will be a publicity bonanza for the winner, and that means there are celebrities involved—like boxer Angus McConal and Megan’s friend Niamh, an up-and-coming actress who’s teamed up with Megan’s uncle, the retired Sligo harbormaster. But rivalries and revelries turn out to be a bad blend when McConal dies at a whiskey tasting. Megan promised her girlfriend she’d quit her amateur sleuthing, but with Niamh and her uncle as suspects, she’s over a barrel . . .

With her relationship on the rocks, Megan gets in even deeper when a second entrant in the competition is killed—and her investigation starts zeroing in on a suspect. Now she just needs proof . . .



Review:

This is book 5 in the series and it brings about some changes for our favorite driver! Megan crosses paths with another dead body (she can't help it) and because her favorite policeman is there and potentially involved, he can't investigate. So Megan will have to use his guidance from afar and try to work with someone she doesn't like (and doesn't like her), to try to clear her uncle, and keep more bodies from piling up. A quick read, this is a fun take on a whiskey promotional festival, and helps to set up the next couple of books in the series.
